RE: TNT2 and Potato XF86 3.3



Quittin' on Matrox ? I'd understand if it were for anything else then a
TNT2. If you're looking to play games you're making a good point but still.
i have a matrox g200 millenium with 8MB ram and found it to be a very very
nice card, if you're not satisfied with it's 3d accell. speeds you should
know that i wasn't impressed until i started playing with the apperture size
and some other little tweaks. Once you get the right apperture size the G200
is surely up to a tnt2

Moreover, it's well supported in X and support nice refresh rates at any
resolution, my brand new monitor still can't beat this card. i'm getting all
melancholic here but man take a look at the picture quality of the G200
compared to a TnT2 (muddy colors)

Oh well, i'll stop right here and leave it up to you. Maybe after this mail
i'll get hired by Matrox, maybe not :)

In my workstation, I've currently got a Matrox G200 card. I recently came
across a TNT2 card that I'd like to use instead, since it's a better card
overall.

Looking a /usr/share/doc/xserver-svga/README.NVIDIA is metions that only
16-bit color is supported. Not good.

Has this been corrected in XF86-4? Or should I just stick with the G200?
